No one will pass up a family breakfast when you are serving this delicious Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal. Everyone will be asking for seconds! Perfect start to a perfect morning and nothing could be better unless of course, you try the Chai Tea Oatmeal I made last week.
Fall is a season that reminds me of cool mornings and hot, comforting breakfasts! Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal with Caramel really brings that feeling home. Even though it is kind of a fall recipe, I really love it year-round!
If you are following the Weight Watchers Freestyle plan, this makes 1 serving and is 4 Smartpoints! What a low point and healthy breakfast!
½ C. oats 1 C. almond milk, divided. ½ C. water 1 tsp. vanilla extract 2 tsp cinnamon 8 dates, pitted (fresh) 1 medium apple 1 tbsp. flax seeds
How to Make Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal
In a blender, add ½ the almond milk, dates and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth. This is your “caramel” Chop apple into small pieces and set aside. Combine oats, water, remaining ½ C. almond milk and cinnamon to a small pot. Cook on low for 5 minutes on low/medium, frequently stirring. Add apples and flax seeds to oatmeal and stir until combined. Add ¾ off the date “caramel” and mix. Serve in a bowl and top with remaining date caramel.
Tips for Making Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal
As long as you are using fresh dates, they are ZERO points. Dried and processed dates will add points.
I prefer using unsweetened Silk Almond milk
If you want a “spicier” flavor, you can add a little more cinnamon, nutmeg, and even some allspice or cloves.
Like sweeter apples? We really like Honeycrisp. Golden Delicious will be a little less sweet.
This recipe uses quick oats, so if you use any other kind, cooking times may vary.
Feel free to add in nuts (just account for the points if you are on WW)
